      I might have a new desktop... lol

      This OS is super fast, I've given the VM 2 Gb ram and a dual core, and it's blazing.

            @mlnews Usually only put my Red Hat on for CentOS with servers and hypervisors. Now you've got me considering wiping my Ubuntu notebook this weekend. Flaking on social obligations in 5 ... 4 ... 3 ...

            I love running all the latest Linux desktops 🙂 Wish that I had more machines on which to do it. If I still had my own home, I might make a rock solid NFS /home server and make my machines multi-boot into lots of different Linux desktops and keep all of my files as if they were local but change the OS around.

                The desktop background actively changes at login.

                Now my background looks like this. This is actually a pretty smooth running desktop. I might just upgrade my laptop from Win 10 to this...

                  Here are some system stats on a very moderate build.

                                      The wonderful world of Linux. Being able to change the OS, but keep the desktop. Or change the desktop while keeping the OS. Keeping your files regardless of OS or desktop. It's miraculous.

                                        So you are running Mate on Korora 24 now? No Cinnamon because you are in a VM without direct GPU access? What desktop options are available?

                                          So far it is a really nice looking desktop environment.
